    That's only an opinion.

    “There is a cult of ignorance in the United States, and there has always been. The strain of anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that 'my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge.”
    ― Issac Asimov

    Sounds novel but the viruses are probably laughing in the sneeze droplets at this one.

    "The fact that the general incidence of leukemia has doubled in the last two decades may be due, partly, to the increasing use of x-rays for numerous purposes. The incidence of leukemia in doctors, who are likely to be so exposed, is twice that of the general public. In radiologists … the incidence is ten times greater."

    The fact that fify five years have passed since this statement was made and our knowledge of radiology has expanded many times over in the intervening period seems to have escaped your brain cell.
